I was surfing the internet, and I found an interesting school, for sports-related careers, including - becoming a scout...

| Where's the part about the school? To me it looks like a normal sports agency |

| These guys are sports agents. Not a school for sports management. |

Sorry, it's one of those complicated organizations, like one entity is embedded into another one... Like a Chinese Puzzle... 
It's better if you do a Goggle search, and just type in sportsmanagement.com, into the search engine... You can search, yourselves, through the results that come up... I know there's a school in there, somewhere... It sounded interesting, to me, because it said something about learning to be a scout, for sports teams... That's something that's in all Laker Fan's Minds, these days... :roll:
I want to say, that I don't fully endorse this school... I just thought it might be interesting... Myself, I'm too old to change careers, now... I don't want to lead anyone astray... So, I would investigate fully... Ask around... Does anyone know about these guys??

Just forget the information, above... Although, it might be helpful, for someone... I don't know what happened... I can't find the exact site that I was on, before....
If you type school of sports management, into your Google Search Engine, you will get many choices, of sports management schools.
If I were younger, and just looking for a career, I sure would investigate... Shucks, sometimes, you wish you could go back, and do things over...

Could this be it?

If this is serious, I may have to look into it.
Though seems to be a potential ripoff.

I contacted a local college basketball coach.... who said that may be a scheme.

Yup,... Magic_Bryant has the right link... I don't know how I got lost... 
Anything that sounds too good is usually a scam, of some sort... 
Anyway, it just seemed good, at the time I saw it. I was thinking of how great it would be, if I could help choose the right Laker Players...
I guess we all have our "pipe dreams".

I am actually a bit interested, maybe I can call that university they say that takes their courses as credits and talk to them. I dont know, they kinda invested a good amount of money on the scam since they have a pretty nice website and all.
It doesnt give them credability that they dont post tuition fees. |
